Chapter 777 The Wheel Of Fate [Part 2]
Lux took a deep breath before spinning the Wheel of Fate.
He had used all of his strength to spin the wheel with everything he had, hoping that it would give him a weakness that wasn't too detrimental to him.
Even Max and Eriol, who were always on Lux's side, had worried looks on their faces as they, too, looked at the Wheel of Fate, which was starting to slow down.
Finally, half a minute later, the wheel stopped, and the marker pointed at something, which made the corner of the Jade Emperor's lips twitch.

Lux Von Kaizer's Weakness - Donald Tramp
"Make Murica Great Again."

"... I think the Wheel is a bit faulty," the Jade Emperor said with a stiff smile. "Why don't you spin it again? Consider that first one a trial. Don't worry, this one is not counted."
Max and Eriol, who were seated in the peanut gallery, booed, but the Jade Emperor paid them no mind.
Even Nemesis thought that the Wheel of Fate was broken, so she didn't oppose the Jade Emperor's suggestion.
Lux, who had no idea who Donald Tramp was, just nodded his head and spun the wheel a second time. If even the Jade Emperor felt that this weakness was too much, he thought that it was for his own good that he gave the Wheel another chance.
A minute later, the Wheel of Fate stopped spinning, and the marker stopped at a different weakness.
This weakness, however, made everyone, including Max and Eriol, speechless.

"What in the Sun Jin Woo...," the Necromancer God muttered after a full minute had passed.
Lux's face had become beet red after seeing his one sole weakness in the entire world.
He didn't know if this weakness was a good or bad thing, but he had every intention of testing it when he reunited with Iris and Cai after his Ranker breakthrough had ended.
Nemesis rubbed her forehead after seeing the weakness that Lux currently had.
Since the Wheel of Fate had already been spun twice, it would be too much to ask for it to be spun a third time.
"Since Fate has already made its decree, we recognize the blessings that you receive from the world of Elysium," Nemesis said. "Congratulations, Lux Von Kaizer. Your breakthrough to become a Heaven's Necromancer has been approved. I will now send you back to Elysium so that your breakthrough will finally be completed."
The Goddess then looked at the Half-Elf with a resigned smile on her face.
"Any last words before I send you back?" Nemesis asked.
"Just one thing," Lux replied. "Who is Donald Tramp?"
The Goddess Nemesis smiled sweetly before waving her hand. She didn't even bother to answer Lux's question and sent him back directly to Elysium, where he would undergo his breakthrough.
"You did the right thing," Max stated. "He doesn't need to know."
"I know, right?" Nemesis said coolly. "Thank you,, everyone for taking your time to be here. You can now return to your duties."
Thanatos, who was more than happy to leave so he could take his granddaughter to a theme park, instantly disappeared without a trace.
He could only spend four days of every month with her, so he wanted to make every minute count.
The Jade Emperor also left because there were many concerns that he still needed to attend to in Heaven.
"Watch over that child for me," the Necromancer God said to Max and Eriol. "I am very curious about what kind of path he will pave for the next generation of Necromancers."
"That is all we can do," Max replied. "Watch and see what kind of trouble he will create as he lives his life to the fullest."
The God of Necromancers chuckled before disappearing into a cloud of black smoke. As the God worshipped by all Necromancers, he was looking forward to Lux's progress in the world of Elysium.

Necromancer's Ancestral Lands...
The loud tolling of a bell reverberated across the land as the dome of blood in the Skeleton King's hand started to glow in a golden light.
Hereswith, who was inside the World Tree, clapped her hands happily, knowing that Lux had finally started to formally surpass the Initiate Rank and become a Ranker.
A voice, which could only be described as angelic, made an announcement, reaching every corner of Solais and Elysium, informing them of the grand event that was happening in a place where their eyes couldn't see.
"As Darkness knocks on Heaven's Doors, the chosen one shall rise over darkened skies. Light and Dark both intertwine, thus are the makings of the Divine."
A golden gate appeared above the Skeleton King's head. It then slowly opened, making all Necromancers within the premise of the Holy Land subconsciously shudder.
The gate emanated powerful Divine energy, which made them feel as if they were about to be purified until their bodies turned to ashes.
Fortunately, their greatest fears didn't come to pass, and they watched in awe as golden light poured from the gate and spun around the dome of blood, making its glow intensify.
For some reason, some of these golden lights flew towards Gaap, who had woken up after sensing that a great change was happening in his surroundings.
Kieran was horrified after seeing this scene because he thought that the old Halfling would burst into flames and die due to the pureness of the Divine energy that had fallen on his body.
Truth be told, Gaap didn't feel any fear when he was bathed with golden light. For At that exact moment, the Old Halfling felt a gentle, warm hand cupping his face.
23:32
Gaap forcefully opened his eyes and saw the beautiful High-Elf, whom he thought him, his duty had already ended since Lux had become a Ranker.
Although he had many regrets in life, including the part of failing to avenge his Master, the old Halfling knew that he had done his best.
'Forgive me, Master,' Gaap thought as he slowly closed his eyes. 'I was unable to avenge you.'
At that exact moment, the Old Halfling felt a gentle, warm hand cupping his face.
Gaap forcefully opened his eyes and saw the beautiful High-Elf, whom he thought about for almost every day of his life.
"Master, have you come to pick me up?" Gaap asked as tears streamed down the side of his face. "I miss you so much, Master. I'm sorry. I was too weak to avenge you."
The old Halfling, who had never shown any weakness, even in the face of Saints, cried of the Skeleton King, which had started to form cracks on its surface. "I will watch over him and ensure that he doesn't commit the same mistakes we made in the past."
in front of the woman, whom he treasured the most in his life.
Hereswith looked fondly at her dear Disciple, who had suffered for many years after her death.
"There will be a time and place for me to do that, my Dear Disciple," Hereswith said affectionately. "But today is not that day."
Hereswith's tone was so gentle and kind, that if Lux were here, he would definitely think that she was an impostor, especially after being drowned from the shower of profane words and spittle that he had to deal with during his training with her.
"What do you mean, Master?" Gaap asked in confusion.
"It means that your role is still not over in this world," Hereswith replied. "You still need to play your part and ensure that your Disciple, my Grand Disciple, will not commit the same mistakes we made in the past."
She then kissed Gaap's forehead, making the Halfling's body glow brightly.
Soon, Lux's Master felt something warm and profound wash over his body.
Gaap didn't know that his white hair had started to turn gray, and the wrinkles on his face disappeared one by one.
Lux had imparted the excess world blessing to his Master, allowing Gaap to regain a bit of his youth and several years of his life.
A moment later, the golden light disappeared, and a handsome Halfling with gray hair emerged from its aftermath.
"Look after him for me, Gaap, until our next reunion. By then, I pray that you will no longer have any regrets in life. Until then, stay strong and live life to the fullest."
Herewith's faint voice reached the Halfling's ears, making him turn his head towards the World Tree.
"Yes, Master," Gaap replied before shifting his gaze to the golden dome on the hands of the Skeleton King, which had started to form cracks on its surface. "I will watch over him and ensure that he doesn't commit the same mistakes we made in the past."
As if waiting for that moment, the sound of thousands of crystal vases breaking spread in the surroundings as the golden dome exploded, showering the entire Ancestral Lands with golden light.
Lux's breakthrough had finally ended, and with it, a new era began anew.
